Organization
The NCUA is governed by a three member Board appointed by the President of the United States and confirmed by the United States Senate. The President also chooses which member will serve in the position of Chairman. Board members serve six year terms, although members often remain until their successors are confirmed and sworn in.

Famous quotes containing the word organization:
“The art of government is the organization of idolatry. The bureaucracy consists of functionaries; the aristocracy, of idols; the democracy, of idolaters. The populace cannot understand the bureaucracy: it can only worship the national idols.”
—George Bernard Shaw (18561950)
“To fight oppression, and to work as best we can for a sane organization of society, we do not have to abandon the state of mind of freedom. If we do that we are letting the same thuggery in by the back door that we are fighting off in front of the house.”
—John Dos Passos (18961970)
“... every womans organization recognizes that reformers are far more common than feminists, that the passion to look after your fellow man, and especially woman, to do good to her in your way is far more common than the desire to put into every ones hand the power to look after themselves.”
—Crystal Eastman (18811928)
